Until yesterday I had spent over £500, which is more than $700.
Despite this spending many parts of the game are too difficult to be enjoyable or even achieved.
Last night I tried to rectify this by spending another £300.
The reward for this was next to nothing.
All that has happened is Galactic War is even more difficult.
The reward you get for improving your roster is an even more difficult GW. Top level arena squads from battle 3 onwards is not enjoyable. Level 70 squads being blasted out of the park in round 4 is not enjoyable.
Dropping £300 and getting no top level characters and a load of wasted junk shards is not enjoyable and a waste of money.
Making GW, which is main way you can improve yet more spending close to impossible is not enjoyable.
The ever increasing difficulty of GW without increased rewards is not enjoyable.

Anything other than fully geared, 7* level 70 characters are nothing but cannon fodder from three onwards.
I don't expect a 5* level 70 gear level 6 Yoda for example to be of much use in the last few rounds of GW, but when you are facing top 20 arena standard teams from round three onwards then that type of character is down in one assisted hit before you've even had a turn.
You would need 10 full to standard arena teams to complete GW with the opponents I get now.
50 fully geared, starred and levelled characters.
Yes GW is hard to beat but why do players think that it should be beatable every day. There is always a loser in a war, sometimes the game and sometimes you, and this is how it should be.
You have to use fodder for some battles, and use two healers...staggering the healers as needed.
Anyhow, welcome to the forums, and bye I guess.

Game should be challenging. The min you are just pressing buttons the interest is lost
I have played since global launch.
It used to be a challenge, it's now an impossibility.
The more money you spend the more difficult GW becomes until it reaches this stage.
I have a very strong roster and have finished no.1 in arena many times. So I guess I'm on the top ring of the GW matchmaking difficulty.
Every opponent I face from round 3 onwards is one I could face we in high level arena. I have two probably three teams that can beat this level of opponent.
But beating them with enough health left over to take on a similar opponent in the round after and the round after for 10 rounds is our of the question,especially since they removed the tactical retreat options.
I do use fodder. But even level 70 fodder is no longer enough to sustain more than a round of attacks and certainly not make a dint in the opponent.
Fodder is irrelevant in the world where your opponent gets every proc every time, can one shot kill, has multiple assist and counter attacks.
I've been playing since Christmas and also face the same level 70 teams from round 3 through a GW and yes it's hard. Some days I fail but most days I get there through dogged perseverance, and retreating a lot, to fine the combination of characters and turns that will get me through the battle in a fit enough state to fight the next.
Maybe you need more healers in your roster?
Those packs are just RIP OFF. You probably need few thousand dollar per 7* You need 320shards total for a 7* heroes. Unlocked some rare heroe like Leia, Ben, Maul not going to help you beat this game. It actually beat your wallet and drain your money down to the toilet.
Think about it. Even you unlock Maul(80shard) at 4* you still need 240shards.. Assumed each Chromium pack drop Maul everytime that only contains 10 shards and you still need 24 packs!! Average is $16 per 8pack, and you will need 24packs and you need 100% pull. What is the odd you pull 100% for Maul shards?
The chance is low because we have over 70 Heroes, plus Maul is rare heroes. So your are looking for under 2- 5% chance..
I too face full 7* level 70 teams in the middle rounds. I just retreat and differ my tactics. I don't retreat in the last 3 rounds just to keep a challenge in there.
I used to put some toons low lvl just to die and force the opponents to use special skills lmao, it works very well, and I do a lot of retreat too.
GW is the best table in the game, bro, I'm lvl 70 and top rank too, we faced the same problem, but actually I win almost every day. Try to do that we're saying to you, for sure will be so much better.
Methinks, this game is not for you. You can't expect to win GW every time just because you spent money. The spending has to have a purpose. You definitely should stop wasting your money and find another game. Best of luck.
I agree
I think you meant to say "byeee Felicia"
Team A: QGJ, Barris, Lumi, Yoda, Rey
Team B: Phasma, Sidious, Kylo, Daka, FOTP
Team C: Ackbar, Leia, Dooku, Ewok Elder, Poe
Team D : HK-47, Poggle, GS, IG-86, IG-88
Team E: Ima-Gun Di, CT-5555, FO Stormtrooper, Fisto, Aayla
Of course, everybody with proper gear, level and stars.
Come on, that happens, and so what, it is suposed to be a huge challange to complete it, yesterday my toons just could not cut it, thats it, only thing it means is I need more stong upgraded toons, and is that not the point of the game?
Game on and you will prevail, for f2p it might just takes a little longer
Happy gaming
Well, there's your problem...

This. Exactly.
Bye Felicia.
Your B squad statements are incorrect. I faced maxed out 70 teams my whole run. While Phasma who runs my B team is 7* gear 8 all abilities maxed, the others are only 5-6* gear 7. My NS team Ventress and Daka are 7* gear 8, Initiate 6* gear 7, Talia 5* gear 6(7 today) Acolyte 5* gear 6. My droid squad none are 7* only 86 is 6* Poe 5* gear 8, Poggle 5* gear 6(7 today) HK and 88 5* gear 7 and they all have their uses. Strategic planning on how to attack is vital.
I mean heck my main team I run through has 2 that are only 5* on it,lol. Like I said I face pretty much all 7* 70's teams. I get an easy run here/there where only like 6-8 are that.
I also am flexible. I'll swap out one from my A with a B or C, or swap out my leader for a different. If I need more heal and control I'll sit my gear 9 Max GS and pop in Grandma Daka. Know your synergies and you can do just fine. Use the tools the game gives you. Outthink the AI. (See my Super Dooku AI post from yesterday) Just gotta deal.
Oh and to steal my friend the wookies line I'd like to welcome you to the forum.
If you are leaving can I have your stuff?
This just blows my mind because my team is average at best and i breeze through it daily with no issues. Generally i dont even need to sub out a toon and make it through with just my starting 5.
Its far far too easy to even be considered a mild challenge. A few times a week i do need to sub a toon or retreat but overall its just free, fast currency with minimal effort.
I'd love to progress more, ya know...if I could get any mats from GW any time soon.
For those of you talking that "it's supposed to be hard" nonsense....which one of you fought a team of level 86s today? None? Oh ok...tell me again how easy it is for you because that helps when I can't get past the 5th fight for the past 4 days.
